KAL is an ELECTRONIC NON-GOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATION (e-NGO) and has been initiated on independent volunteering bases as a global open network since 1993. Members with skills in linguistic, and information technology are sharing their thoughts around Kurdish linguistic issues. They seek information, solutions and focus on a future for better understanding of the Kurdish language. KAL is a community of people who has responded to this crucial question of our society.

"As I have noted before, the Kurdish nation will converge via a unified Kurdish language. The prerequisite of a unified Kurdish language is a unified Kurdish alphabet. This means that the Kurdish scholars and the literati need to develop a writing system that allows all speakers hailing from every Kurdish dialect to use that writing system."

The first Kurdish culture, art and literature conference will be held on 11-12 December in Amed. For the first time in the history of our people, Kurdish intellectuals, writers and artists are going to discuss the historical resources, current situation and future perspective of the Kurdish culture. This conference will be not only a historical step for the Kurdish people but also a conscientious, moral and political responsibility for the Middle East Peoples and Humanity. No doubt, such a conference will also be a great contribution in the struggle to achieve freedom and human values for our people.

Language codes are those that assigns letters and/or numbers as identifiers for languages. These codes are often used to organise library collections, to choose the correct localizations and translations in computerising the literature, and finally, a shorthand designation for forms.
